Ithacan Historical Society
Photograph, Ag. Sotiros Church, Stavros, c1960s
The photograph is of Ag. Sotiros Church which is built in the traditional Byzantine design and stands in the village square of the village of Stavros in Ithaca. The festival of Sotiros is the biggest on the island taking place over two days, the 5th and 6th of August, and attracts large crowds. Stavros is the largest village in northern Ithaca. The larger villages on the islands hold feast days celebrating the saint of their local church. In the summer months when the island's population swells, these celebrations attract large crowds and generations of Ithacans gather together to enjoy themselves and raise money for their local communities.A black and white photograph with a white crinkled border of an Orthodox Church. -

Photograph - Group Photo, Fotek School Portraits, Jacana Primary School 1997 Students and Staff Photograph, 1997
Jacana Primary School was established in 1959 during a period of rapid suburban expansion in Melbourne’s northern corridor. Located in the suburb of Jacana, the school was part of a broader post-war effort to provide accessible public education to growing communities shaped by migration, industrial development, and housing initiatives. Throughout its operation, Jacana Primary reflected the evolving social fabric of the area. By the 1990s, the school had become a microcosm of Melbourne’s increasing cultural diversity, welcoming students from a wide range of ethnic and socio-economic backgrounds. This diversity was not only embraced but actively celebrated through inclusive teaching practices, multicultural events, and student leadership programs such as the junior student council. The 1997 photograph captures a moment in this dynamic environment, showcasing both staff and students engaged in a shared educational mission. It represents a time when schools were not only places of learning but also key sites of community building, civic engagement, and social support. Jacana Primary closed in the early 2000s as part of broader changes in educational policy and demographic shifts. However, its legacy lives on through archival materials like this photograph, which offer valuable insights into the role of public schools in shaping community identity and fostering social cohesion during a transformative period in Melbourne’s suburban history. This 1997 photograph of staff and students at Jacana Primary School marks a poignant moment in the history of a community-centred educational institution that served Melbourne’s northern suburbs from 1959 until its closure in the early 2000s. More than a conventional group portrait, the image stands as a historical artifact that encapsulates the spirit and values of a school deeply embedded in its local community. Jacana Primary School was distinguished by its commitment to educational equity, inclusivity, and a strong sense of belonging—principles that were actively lived and practiced within its classrooms and broader school culture. The photograph offers insight into the educational ethos and staff dynamics of the time, while also reflecting the broader social and cultural shifts occurring in suburban Melbourne at the close of the 20th century. As part of the school’s visual archive, this image contributes to a richer understanding of how public education shaped community identity, supported diverse student populations, and left a lasting legacy in the lives of generations of children and families.A colour photograph mounted on white card with a black border, is laminated.

Ashtray (Asbakje)
The item dates from the years of Dutch influence in the region which ended in 1962. The region is now known as West Papua.As the above urls will show, West Papua's history is a complex one with various colonial powers disputing ownership with the local inhabitants. Modern Indonesia also lays claim to it. The area was part of the Kingdom of the Netherlands from 1949 till 1962. Prior to 1949 it was part of the Dutch East Indies. The item may well date from this pre-1949 period.Richly illustrated small rectangular glass ashtray showing map of one-time Dutch New Guinea, surrounding waters and smaller islands. Two endemic bids are also shown. The glas is a pale blue; the illustrations are in green and yellow; words are in black.
